Argh, well there is not much to say about me, it is all pretty simple!

1) I love Harry Potter (the book, not the character. Don't get me started on how JK should write a series devoted to the Marauders...)
2) I like Lord of the Rings (notice how I didn't use the word 'love'. That is because, sadly, I have only read about 7 chapters of the book. The films are great, in my opinion, and even one of my good friends, who has basically memorized all of the book, has given the thumbs up to the movies.)
3) Johnny Depp is GORGEOUS! (don't bother arguing against that. It is a lost cause.)
4) Jake Gyllenhaal is GORGEOUS!(again, don't argue.)
5) Tim Burton is a genius! (if you have seen any of his movies, you know what I mean. If not, shame on you! Go watch The Nightmare Before Christmas, Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice, etc. RIGHT NOW!)
And lastly, I am in SIRIUS DENIAL: OotP Never Happened! He is not dead!
Oh, and I finally started using Live Journal! If you want to find out more about me, just click on the link at the top... ;)

As you (you being the person who has stumbled upon this page) have perhaps noticed, I don't have any stories up here. That is because, sadly, I am a very, very impatient person who gets frustrated very, VERY easily. Anything I write would not suffice, in my opinion, and I would be constantly looking for ways to improve it. That, and I am lacking in the ideas department. Therefore, this 'author' profile is just a place for me to keep track of my favorite stories and authors, and to encourage others to read any or all of the stories in my favorites list, because I only choose the best, dahling! ;P

I have finally renewed my interest in fanfiction.net...I must admit, it had been waning in the gap between Order of the Phoenix and Half-Blood Prince. Which I loved by the way. Not the interest-waning, the book. Sad, yes (sob!), but also necessary, I believe, for the 7th and final (again, sob!) book. But hey, that's just my opinion. And with that I bid all thee lost travellers who have found themselves in this rather odd and rather twisted corner of fanfiction.net farewell and...um...happy reading!

A somewhat late Happy New Year! Yes, I know, I still don't have any stories up...some may ask what is the relevance of having an account if I don't have any stories...well, I like talking about myself. There, I admitted it! And to celebrate my acceptance that I am a self-obsessed narcissist, I present you with a couple of FAVOURITES lists... it's like Christmas all over again!

Top 10 TV Shows: Yes, my current obsession (apart from myself) is television shows. My mother is currently worried over the amount of time I spend watching TV...But really, it's not THAT much...can I help it if television is just too damn addictive? Now, some may call this entertainment that doesn't require much brain power, but I have to step in here! The majority of popular TV shows might be mindless entertainment (reality shows, anyone?) but there a couple of exceptions! Here they are (and if possible, you must, MUST watch these):

1) Firefly - Ah, this short-lived series from the genius that is Joss Whedon is the cleverest, wittiest, and best damn show all around that I can think of. The characters are great, and let's face it: it is a space western. It just rocks. Google it, then buy the box set.
2) Scrubs - So adorably quirky and insane. JD's fantasies are so out there, but let's face it, everyone has had a weird fantasy sequence some time or another! And Dr. Cox is my hero. Season 5 is finally starting, and it is as good as ever! Definitely a must-see!
3) Veronica Mars - Ratings. Must. Go. Up. People. Must. Watch. UPN. Must. Not. Cancel. This! Google is your friend. Seriously, Joss Whedon and Kevin Smith have raved about it and even guest-starred. It must be pretty damn good!
4) Lost - So damn intriguing and so, so much better than the over-rated Desperate Housewives...Personally, don't care much about the love triangle (or is it now a square?), I just wanna know what is up with that damn island! Oh, and more shirtless men please.
5) Gilmore Girls - This show has some of the best writing around. Just so charming, with just enough quirk to balance out the drama. Rory and Lorelai are just the coolest. Emily reminds me of a more evil version of my mom...And I want a Luke!
6) Alias - Ah, the kick-ass spy show. The first two years were the best, seasons 3 and 4 were meh, and just as it is stepping up its ante, it gets cancelled...at least it has given me 5 seasons of sexy spyness and jaw-dropping shockers. Not to mention SpyDaddy.
7) Smallville - In the past, Smallville could be considered a guilty pleasure...but now it is just too damn good not to watch! Season 5 is a must-see...great episodes, great special guest appearances (James Marsters!), and even the dialogue is not so cheesy!
8) Buffy the Vampire Slayer - This show would be higher up (either #1 or #2) on my list if it were still on air. But alas, I must satisfy my BtVS needs with reruns...sigh...That box-set is just a bit too expensive for me...but I will buy it once it is on sale!
9) Friends - Yes, Friends. Who didn't love Chandler's self-deprecating sarcasm? Could he BE any more funny? This is a classic, with so many great quotes, and let's face it: Ross and Rachel's will-they-or-won't-they saga was the "Who shot J.R?" for the nineties...
10) CSI: Vegas - I know, I know, this is the series which spawned so many copycat forensic shows that one wonders what does it say about society when dead bodies and killers draw in the big audiences. But this is the original and the best. Grissom rocks.

Top 5 Movies:

1) Donnie Darko
2) Serenity
3) The Breakfast Club
4) From Dusk 'Till Dawn
5) Pirates of the Carribbean

Top 5 Books:

1) To Kill a Mockingbird
2) Harry Potter series
3) His Dark Materials Trilogy
4) Lord of the Flies
5) The Stephanie Plum series

Top 3 Websites:

1) www.joblo.com - The best site for the best up-to-date movie news and trailers...also very, very funny!
2) www.eonline.com/Gossip/Kristin/index.html?fdsskristin - The TV Diva Kristin Veitch herself --if you need any information or spoilers for your fave TV show, this is the place to be. Check out her chats on Monday and her columns on Friday; so uber witty!
3) www.televisionwithoutpity.com - Love the snark! Recaps of TV episodes with a twist!

Well, that is it for now. If you agree/disagree with me on any of these topics, leave a comment on my livejournal account, website above! That's it for now! I have succeeded in procrastinating on my homework for this long...probably should get around to doing it now! Till next time!

April 9th, 2007

Okay, it has been more than a year since I have last logged onto ff.net, and I just realized how bored I must have been when I last updated my profile...A lot of my interests have changed since then, but the one thing that stays constant is my love of fanfic about the Marauders! I first became obsessed with the Marauders 4 years ago, and although it has waned a little since that time, I still love their (untold) story. With the final HP book just around the corner, I keep hoping for more background about them from JKR, but I think I read somwhere that she does not plan on doing any prequels to HP. Shame, really...but then again, it gives the authors of great Marauder fanfic more wiggle-room:P Anyway, if you do happen to come across this page, please feel free to send me a message about fanfic, HP, or anything in general that you feel we have in common:D I will probably be seeing you again in a year when I update this thing again!

December 29th (well, 30th technically) 2008

Haha, well, I was only off by a couple of months from my prediction! I've decided that although I have a lot of crap on my profile, and that I have vastly, vastly changed since I first wrote this (way too much capitalization...ah, to be a junior high student again) I'm not going to delete anything. Call it my own personal time capsule. So, yes, I'm back to reading more fanfic. Sigh, I thought I could quit after 8th grade, but alas, ff.net keeps dragging me back. Still haven't written anything...probably won't in the near future either unless inspiration strikes...and when it does, it better strike hard, if only to overcome my near debilitating laziness. Hah. And I'm only half joking on that. Oh, and I changed my username. I just couldn't bare (bear? Is there any other form of 'bare'?) using my old one anymore. Now that definitely was way too junior high for me. :)
